DATE : 30th August, 2024
(53) PER COURT:
1.
It is informed that Writ Petition Nos.832/2022, 10542/2021, 4358/2023 and 12083/2021, are not concerned with this group of Petitions involving the Ambulance Drivers. They are wrongly listed on the Board in this group of Petitions. As such, remove these four Writ Petitions from the board and list them on 13/09/2024.
2.
All these Petitioners are identically placed Ambulance Drivers. Considering the pleadings and the affidavit-in-reply filed by the Deputy Director, Health Services, Chhatrapati Sambhajinagar Circle, dated 04/07/2024, which is treated as a common reply in all these Writ Petitions, the record would indicate three situations, as under :- (a) In most of these matters, the Zilla Parishads have engaged contractual services of Ambulance Drivers directly; (b) In some cases, the Zilla Parishads have appointed the 'Rugna Kalyan Samiti' (especially Nandurbar and Jalgaon).
(54) (c) In some cases, these Ambulance Drivers have been engaged on contractual basis directly by the Chief Executive Officer of the Zilla Parishad or through a Contractor.
3.
We have perused the several orders and judgments delivered by this Court at the Principal Seat, at the Aurangabad Bench and at the Nagpur Bench. Under the orders of the Hon'ble the Chief Justice of the Bombay High Court, which is communicated by the learned Registrar (Judicial-1), Bombay High Court to the Registry of the Aurangabad Bench and the Nagpur Bench that, all these Writ Petitions have been clubbed along with the Civil Contempt Petitions. By the Administrative orders dated 06/10/2023, 31/10/2023 and 06/11/2023, all these matters have been transferred to the Aurangabad Bench as per the roaster assignment. Hence, all these matters are being listed before this Bench.
4.
In several hundreds of cases, this Court has concluded on the following issues :-
(55) (a) None of these contractual Ambulance Drivers would be entitled to claim regularization or permanency in the service, either in the State Government or in the Zilla Parishads. Of course, it would be open to the State Government, if they desire, to introduce a policy in the light of the Secretary, State of Karnataka and others Vs. Uma Devi (3) and others, [(2006) 4 Supreme Court Cases 1]; (b) The manner of payment of salaries of these contractual Ambulance Drivers would be continued as per the prevailing contractual arrangement between the Zilla Parishads and the Contractors or directly by the Zilla Parishads, as the case may be.
(c) These contractual Ambulance Drivers would be continued on contractual basis and would not be replaced by other contractual Drivers, in short, a contractual Ambulance driver would not be replaced by another contractual Ambulance Driver.
5.
A group of matters had also reached the Hon'ble Supreme Court in Special Leave Petition (Civ.) No.8395/2021, filed by the Chief Executive Officer Zilla Parishad, Solapur Vs. Ashok Dhondiba Meher and others, wherein the Hon'ble Supreme Court has delivered it's verdict on 23/03/2022,
(56) concluding that the only relief granted by the High Court to the private Respondents (the contractual Ambulance Drivers) is that, they should be paid the wages at the minimum of the pay-scale at the lowest grade, in the regular pay-scale extended to the regular employees holding the same posts.
6.
It is also concluded that the said benefit as ordered to be extended by the High Court, is in tune with the observations of the Hon'ble Supreme Court in State of Punjab and others Vs. Jagjit Singh and others, [(2017) 1 SCC 148]. It was further concluded that, it cannot be overlooked that, these private Respondents, though employed through Contractors, are discharging onerous duties of driving the Ambulances, which are operated to provide the benefit of public health to the citizens in the Primary Health Centres under the Zilla Parishads, which in turn, is discharging the obligations of the State. Therefore, in such circumstances, the minimum relief that has been granted by the High Court would not call for interference. 7.
The Hon'ble Supreme Court further held in paragraph No.10 that, the judgment dated 20/11/2019, delivered by the
(57) Nagpur Bench of the Bombay High Court in Dhiraj Sudhakarrao Wankhede and others Vs. The Zilla Parishad, Chandrapur and others (Writ Petition No.2247/2014), has been upheld. The said judgment was assailed before the Hon'ble Supreme Court in Special Leave Petition (Civil) bearing Diary No.12195/2020 and the said Special Leave Petition has been dismissed on 22/02/2021.
8.
Considering the order that we are passing today in the light of the earlier orders passed by this Court at the Principal Seat, Aurangabad Bench and the Nagpur Bench, and by the Hon'ble Supreme Court, the Contractors who have been impleaded in these matters, are rendered formal parties. 9.
This Court (Coram : Ravindra V. Ghuge and Sanjay A. Deshmukh, JJ.) has delivered an extensive order, dated 02/03/2023, in Review Application (Civ.) No.324/2022 in Writ Petition No.4490/2021 (Zilla Parishad, Nanded Vs. Shivgir Vitthal Giri and others) and along with a group of Review Petitions. After considering the various judgments/orders passed, it was recorded in paragraph Nos. 6 to 10 of the said order, as under :-
(58) "6.
With the assistance of the learned advocates, we have noted that the National Health Mission introduced the scheme for engaging Ambulance Drivers on contractual basis. The scheme was floated by the Union of India and 60% of the funds are to be granted by the Union of India. The Union of India, therefore, appears to be a necessary and answering Respondent. Same was not arrayed as a Respondent in the original Writ Petitions.
7.
We are also informed that the said scheme was in coordination with the Union of India and the State of Maharashtra, with 60% of the funds being generated by the Union of India and 40% being generated by the State of Maharashtra. There is no record placed before us, either in the Writ Petitions or even in the Review Petitions, that the Zilla Parishad was one of the funding agency in these matters, unlike the situation with the Chandrapur Zilla Parishad. 8.
A coordinate Bench at Nagpur in Writ Petition No.6025/2015 decided on 29.06.2017, has already dismissed the Writ Petition filed by such contractual ambulance drivers seeking regularization with the Zilla Parishad, Chandrapur. This is recorded by the learned Bench in it's judgment dated 20.11.2019 delivered in Writ Petition No.2247/2014 filed by Dhiraj Sudhakarrao Wankhede and others vs. The Zilla Parishad, Chandrapur and others (supra). Taking into account that Dhiraj Wankhede and others were identically placed, the learned Bench at Nagpur concluded in it's judgment dated 20.11.2019 that they would be entitled to the same protection of drawing minimum pay scale at the lowest grade in the regular pay scale available to the regular employees. The prayer for regularization was rejected. Insofar as the terminated ambulance drivers were concerned, the Court ruled that they would not be entitled for the benefits of the said judgment and the said benefits would be extended even to the similarly situated inservice contractual drivers, who have not approached the Court.
(59) 9.
In another batch of Writ Petitions bearing Writ Petition (stamp) No.92250/2020 filed at the Principal Seat by Nagendrayya Panchalingayya Hiremath and others (supra) and connected group of matters, the learned Division Bench delivered a common order on 08.12.2020 taking into account the law laid down by the Nagpur Bench in Dhiraj Wankhede (supra). It was pointed out to the learned Division Bench that the Zilla Parishad, Solapur, was receiving the services of the contractual drivers, who are employees of the S.P. Securities Services Private Limited. The drivers were never appointed by the Solapur Zilla Parishad. Based on Dhiraj Wankhede (supra), the petitions were disposed off and the drivers were granted similar minimum pay scale at the lowest grade in the regular pay scale, which is extended to the regular employees holding the same posts, with effect from the date of petitions. 10.
All these orders i.e. Dhiraj Wankhede (supra) and Nagendrayya Panchalingayya Hiremath (supra), are sustained by the Honourable Supreme Court, is what is conveyed to us by the learned advocate for the petitioners.
10.
It has been noted in all earlier orders by this Court that, it was in the case of Chandrapur Zilla Parishad, wherein a tender was floated for engaging contractual Ambulance Drivers. Few other Zilla Parishads had neither floated any such tender, nor signed any contract or the appointment order. 11.
The learned Counsel Shri. Ashutosh Kulkarni, Special Counsel for the Respondent/State of Maharashtra, assisted by the
(60) Additional Government Pleader Shri. M. M. Nerlikar, submits that, none of these Ambulance Drivers have been directly engaged by the State Government. Since they were engaged under a scheme floated by the Union of India under the National Health Mission, with 60% funding by the Union of India and 40% funding by the State of Maharashtra, there is no burden cast upon the State of Maharashtra to treat these Ambulance Drivers as employees of the State Government. He further submits that, there are several Contractors like Ashkom Medin India Private Ltd., Laxmidatta Solutions Private Limited, Rugna Kalyan Samiti (Medical Board), Winsol Solution Private Ltd., etc. etc. The salaries of the Ambulance Drivers have to be paid through such Contractors.
12.
The learned Advocates representing the contractual Drivers submit that, there are several instances, wherein it is noticed that the Contractors are not paying the minimum payscales at the lowest grade, in the regular pay-scale extended to the regular employees holding the same posts. According to them, the Contractors are receiving certain amounts under the scheme
(61) and the amount, as is directed by the Hon'ble Supreme Court, vide the order dated 23/03/2022, in the case of Ashok Dhondiba Meher (supra), are not being paid to these employees. 13.
It is in this backdrop that, several Contempt Petitions have been filed and which have already been clubbed along with these Writ Petitions listed before this Court. The learned Advocates submit that, as there was disobedience of the directions of this Court, as well as of the Hon'ble Supreme Court, the Petitioners had no option, but to file the Contempt Petitions. 14.
It is further canvased that the State Government cannot say that, it does not have funds and lack of funds cannot be a ground for not paying the salaries to these Petitioners as per the directions of this Court and the Hon'ble Supreme Court. It is pointed out by the learned Advocates that, in the case of Solapur Zilla Parishad's Drivers, the salaries have not been paid for almost 18 months. A similar precarious situation is faced by several Drivers working with various Zilla Parishads in the State of Maharashtra. The learned Advocates for the Zilla Parishads before us submit that, in some cases, the Zilla Parishads are
(62) scrupulously following the directions of this Court, as well as of the Hon'ble Supreme Court in Ashok Dhondiba Meher (supra). 15.
At the cost of repetition, none of these Ambulance Drivers can claim regularization in view of Dhiraj Sudhakarrao Wankhede (supra). All of them before this Court are primarily seeking the payment of their monthly salaries, as is directed by the Hon'ble Supreme Court in paragraph No.10 of Ashok Dhondiba Meher (supra). We find from the innumerable orders passed by this Court at the Principal Seat and various Benches that, the minimum of the pay-scale at the lowest grade in the regular pay-scale extended to the regular employees holding the same posts, is required to be paid.
16.
The learned Special Counsel Shri Ashutosh Kulkarni has canvassed that, some of these cases are distinguishable in the backdrop of the orders passed at the Principal Seat and it's Benches. We have perused the affidavit-in-reply and having considered the submissions of the learned Counsel Shri. Kulkarni and Shri Nerlikar, we are of the view that, there are no such circumstances, which would convince us to take a different view
(63) in these matters, when several hundreds of Ambulance Drivers are being paid the minimum pay-scale at the lowest grade in the regular pay-scale extended to the regular employees performing the same duties. It has already been held in Chief Conservator of forests & anr. Vs. Jagannath Maruti Kondhare, AIR 1996 SC 2898, by the Hon'ble Supreme Court that, the State cannot argue that it does not have funds to pay wages at par with the regular employees performing identical duties, on the principle of "Equal wages for equal work".
17.
Shri. Ashutosh Kulkarni has submitted that, Jagjit Singh (supra), would not be applicable in these cases. We are unable to agree with the learned Counsel, for the reason that, "Equal wages for equal work" is a time tested principle which has been sustained over the last six decades.
18.
In Jagannath Maruti Kondhare (supra), the Hon'ble Supreme Court concluded that, firstly, funds being unavailable, cannot be a ground for non payment of salaries on the principle of "Equal pay for equal work", and secondly, if sanctioned vacant posts are not available, in a given case,
(64) regularization may not be available. However, there can be no excuse for the State in not paying wages on parity by considering the identical nature of work being performed by the contractual employees qua the regular employees.
19.
The learned Advocates for the contractual Ambulance Drivers point out from the order dated 02/03/2023, passed by us in Shivgir Vitthal Giri (supra), wherein we have concluded in paragraph Nos.15 to 18 as under :- "15.
It is pointed out to us by the learned advocate for the original Petitioners that there is a recent development in the nature of the earlier contractor, namely, Ashkom Media India Private Limited having suffered termination of contract. At the same time, another contractor, who stepped in place of the former, namely, Laxmidatta Solutions Private Limited, has also suffered cancellation of the contract. For the present, the Government of Maharashtra through it's Directorate of Health Services has issued the communication dated 24.01.2023 to the District Health Officers of all the Zilla Parishads that all the Zilla Parishads should submit details of salaries payable to the contractual drivers. A specific format/chart has been supplied, which also includes the GST to be levied. The Zilla Parishads are called upon to state the quantum of funds that they would require to pay monthly salaries of these ambulance drivers, directly through the Zilla Parishads.
16.
We, therefore, direct that the minimum pay scale at the lowest grade in the regular pay scale extended to regular
(65) employees holding the same ambulance driver post, shall be paid to the Petitioners until further orders in their Writ Petitions. So also, their services shall not be terminated without leave of the Court, only in relation to their contractual employment.
17.
Since the petitioners have not been paid salaries for periods ranging between 12 to 15 months, keeping in view the communication by the State of Maharashtra through the Joint Director of Health Services dated 24.01.2023, the concerned Zilla Parishads would intimate to the Joint Director of Health Services, Mumbai, as regards the quantum of unpaid salaries of these ambulance drivers. The chart annexed to the communication dated 24.01.2023, shall be filled in by the Zilla Parishads and shall be tendered to the Joint Director of Health Services, Mumbai, within 10 (ten) days from today. 18.
Considering the communication dated 24.01.2023 issued by the Joint Director to all the District Health Officers of the Zilla Parishads, we expect the Directorate of Health Services to initiate immediate steps to ensure that monthly salaries of these drivers are paid beginning from the month of March, 2023. Needless to state, as the contractors had deployed these Petitioners and since their contracts have been terminated, their further bills shall not be cleared without the leave of our court."
20.
In view of the above, the Agency, meaning the Zilla Parishad or the Contractor, will have to make the assessment of the arrears of such payments from the dates of filing of the Writ Petitions, and accordingly, make such payment to these
(66) Ambulance Drivers, if not in lump-sum, at least in a staggered manner viz. in twelve equated monthly installments. 21.
In view of the above, all these Writ Petitions are partly allowed, with following directions :- (a) The service conditions applicable to these Petitioners would be maintained as long as the scheme lasts. (b) The contractual employees shall not be replaced by new contractual employees, either by the Contractor or by the Principal employer. These directions of not to be replaced with another contractual employee, would be restricted only to the contractual working of such Drivers, and in the event of any misconduct/misdemeanor/death of the employee or any such reasons, the Principal Employer/the Contractor would be at liberty to seek services of new Ambulance Drivers. If there are certain contractual Ambulance Drivers, who have earlier worked, and are not engaged as on date, preference may be granted to them, if any replacement is to be effected.
(67) (c) Considering the grave and serious complaints about Contractors not paying the wages to these Petitioners on the principle laid down by the Hon'ble Supreme Court in Ashok Dhondiba Meher (supra), we deem it appropriate to direct the Principal Employer to directly make the payments of these contractual Ambulance Drivers, vide Bank transactions in their salary Bank Accounts. Such payment shall not be a ground for alleging that the contract is sham and bogus and no employer/employee relationship would be deemed to be established between such Ambulance Drivers vis-a-vis the Zilla Parishad or the Principal Employer.
(d) If any of the contractual Ambulance Drivers have been terminated or disengaged, they are at liberty to raise an industrial dispute under the provisions of the Industrial Disputes Act, 1947 and carry a reference to the Industrial Tribunal/Labour Court, as the case may be, in the light of the law laid down in Vividh Kamgar Sabha vs. Kalyani Steels Ltd. And Anr., [2001 (2) SCC 381]; Cipla
(68) Ltd. Vs. Maharashtra General Kamgar Union and Ors., [2001 (3) SCC 101] and the judgment of the Hon'ble Supreme Court (5 Judges Bench) in Steel Authority of India Ltd. and Others Vs. National Union Water Front Workers and Others, dated 30/08/2001, reported in [AIR 2001 SC 3527].
(e) The conclusions of this Court in Dhiraj Sudhakarrao Wankhede (supra), which have been sustained by the Hon'ble Supreme Court, would not come in way of the State Government in framing a scheme in view of the judgment of the Hon'ble Supreme Court in Secretary, State of Karnataka v/s Umadevi (supra), if so desired by the State Government.
(f) Since we have directed the Zilla Parishads or the State Government or the Rugna Kalyan Samiti (Medical Board), as the case may be, to directly pay the salaries to these contractual employees, it would be within the domain of the Principal Employer, to adjust these amounts as
(69) against the bills of the Contractors and also by adjusting the service charges.
22.

23.
Pending Civil Applications would not survive and the same stand disposed off.
